▫️'Night of terror' – Up to 40 migrants sexually assault young Belgian teen tourists in Italy's Milan on New Year's Eve
Six young people from Liège — four young women and two men — had traveled to the city for the holiday. According to one of the victims, identified as 21-year-old Laura Barbier from Anthisnes, what was supposed to be a festive occasion quickly descended into chaos when a large group of young men, many reportedly waving flags of countries such as Iraq, Pakistan, and the United Arab Emirates, surrounded them near the entrance of the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II just after midnight.
“They held our hands while others touched us under our clothes,” Laura recounted in an interview with Italian news outlet Ansa, describing the assault as “a night of terror.”
“They literally said there was no point and sent us away with a ‘ciao’,” said Laura describing the response of the Milan police to their protests.

▫️Prominent Chilean Trans Activist Revealed To Be Child Sex Offender Who Raped 14-Year-Old Boy, Infecting Him With HIV
A prominent trans activist in Chile has been revealed as a child sex offender after unsuccessfully petitioning a court to hide his past. María López Barrera, formerly known as Rodrigo Alejandro López Barrera, claimed any media discussion of his disturbing history of child sexual assault was a violation of his rights.
López Barrera has been active in Chile’s LGBT scene for decades, and began campaigning for “transvestite rights” under his birth name in the early 2000s after he was made the president of the Aconcagua chapter of TravesChile.
In January of 2004, López Barrera was the subject of an Amnesty International notice condemning the authorities in Chile for not doing more to protect the rights of trans activists. The notice revealed that he had been threatened and shot at in December of 2003, and suggested it was in retaliation to complaints López Barrera had filed complaining about discrimination against transvestites in the region.
Using masculine pronouns for López Barrera, Amnesty went on to demand that “authorities to take immediate steps to ensure his safety, so that he can continue his legitimate work with TravesChile without fear of harassment.”
But just one month after the Amnesty notice was published, López Barrera would be arrested on charges of sexually assaulting a young boy and infecting him with HIV.

▫️Three Imprisoned in Tunisia for Infant Trafficking
A disturbing case of alleged infant trafficking has shocked a Tunisian hospital, leading to the arrest of two security guards and an Algerian woman. Authorities allege the trio conspired to sell a newborn baby born to an Algerian mother.

▫️Federal prosecutor charges couple with enslaving Yazidi girls
They allegedly bought two Yazidi girls at a bazaar in Iraq and sexually abused, beat and forced the children to work. Now a married couple caught in Bavaria in April are facing trial.
The accusations include: Genocide, crimes against humanity, such as enslavement and torture, and war crimes against persons. The Federal Public Prosecutor's Office has charged a married couple from Iraq before the Munich Higher Regional Court. Specifically, the accused Twana H. S. and Asia R.A. are alleged to have severely sexually abused two little Yazidi girls from 2015 and kept them as slaves. The two are also strongly suspected of membership of the terrorist militia "Islamic State" (IS), according to Germany's highest prosecuting authority.
In 2015, the couple allegedly bought a five-year-old Yazidi girl at a bazaar in Mosul, Iraq, at the woman's request, and a twelve-year-old Yazidi girl in 2017; the children were later exploited as slaves. The children were forced to work incessantly and were regularly beaten, the report continued.

▫️Europe's largest brothel bought by a gang of traffickers Prostitution, human trafficking and espionage - the climax of this thriller: 1,000 police officers storm the homes of dozens of suspects.
A meticulously planned operation: two weeks ago, around 1,000 officers from the German Federal Police raided the villas of lawyers, tax experts, entrepreneurs and public officials throughout Germany. They targeted 38 suspicious persons.
These gentlemen - most of them with prestigious jobs - are accused of smuggling wealthy Chinese nationals to Germany. They allegedly offered them illegally obtained residence permits and demanded a lot of money and powers of attorney in return. All those involved have so far denied any allegations. At the center of the investigation is the "Pascha", Europe's largest brothel.
It's like something out of a gangster movie: Claus B. is said to have bought the "Pasha" in the name of a Chinese woman called Hu. Bild am Sonntag" is in possession of the Chinese woman's general power of attorney to the lawyer.

A 35-year-old Dutchman has been arrested in Belgium for managing so-called expose groups on Telegram. In those chat groups, nude photos of girls are shared without their consent, reports the Belgian Public Prosecutor's Office (OM). The man earned money by charging users a fee to join the channels. Tens of thousands of people took advantage of that.
The prosecutor's investigation revealed several expose groups on Telegram that were linked to each other. The groups' administrators encouraged members to share images of victims, also putting their identity and contact information.
So not only did the victims see their photos appear unwanted, but their personal information was also made public against their will.
